Marvel Studios' AVENGERS DOOMSDAY will release on December 18, 2026, but that doesn't mean Brett and EvilJeff can't make some speculations. On RuPaul's DRAG RACE 18x6, Athena Dion takes the crown in Rate-A-Queen with the help of her family. In X-Men comics, Brett and EvilJeff review some early Shadows of Tomorrow including MAGIK & COLOSSUS 1, STORM: EARTH'S MIGHTIEST MUTANT 1, and UNCANNY X-MEN 23.
Marvel Studios' WONDER MAN is a more focused project for MCU TV ... that possibly makes Simon Williams and MUTANT? Brett and EvilJeff have their Wonder Man review and reactions. Plus! Izaya and William have moved out of Netflix's THE BOYFRIEND house. Is the show better for it? All this plus some DRAG RACE and SCARLET WITCH talk.
We start with a look at trailers for MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE and MARVEL'S WOLVERINE by Insomniac Games. Then we talk about Netflix's THE BOYFRIEND S2, Korean dating reality shows, and RPDR 18x4. In comic books, X-MEN have begun the SHADOWS OF TOMORROW and EW! We read ABSOLUTE BATMAN: ARK M! Our first Absolute DC book!
Brett and EvilJeff got a glimpse of James Marsden's Cyclops in Avengers: Doomsday and boy does he look good. FALLOUT S2 has us addicted to Buffout! Brett makes Jeff guess the outcomes of DC K.O. And the Age of Revelation won't die in X-Men comics with an epilogue. All this plus a lot of weird audio and connection issues in Comic Book Queers episode 368!
Hi we have so many finales to review! HEATED RIVALRY took us beyond the cottage. PLURIBUS gave The Invader one more chance before KABOOM. X-MEN AGE OF REVELATION revealed a new-ish villain. STRANGER THINGS stayed true to the 80s. And, oh wait, RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE S18 has started her engines. Who better to talk about this than Brett and EvilJeff, two gay nerds who have this podcast.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS! It's our annual CBQ Awards celebrating the best, worst, and gayest of 2025! Will HEATED RIVALRY win BEST NON-COMICS TV? Will SUPERMAN win BEST COMIC BOOK MOVIE? Will MY HERO ACADEMIA or PEACEMAKER take best BEST COMIC BOOK TV? Who is this year's BEST QUEER IRL? Find out as we give awards to the rather limited set of media and storytelling we engaged with this year!

Brett and EvilJeff have reactions to the leaked AVENGERS DOOMSDAY X-Men lineup and THE BOYS S5 trailer. HEATED RIVALRY introduces its B-couple: Scott Hunter and Kip the Muscular Barista. We like the extra banana. Plus, we check in with PLURIBUS ep6 (John Cena!) and last week's comics including AMAZING X-MEN 3 and WICCAN: WITCHES ROAD.
HEATED RIVALRY has Brett and EvilJeff in violation of high sticking. And STRANGER THINGS S5 drops its first batch of episodes. Do we still care about Vecna, Will, and Robin and the straight characters? Plus, we continue following along the AGE OF REVELATION in the X-Men Marvel Comics.
X-Men Age of Revelation from Marvel Comics goes on and Brett and Evil Jeff continue reacting to titles with a TOOT or a BOOT. Why are some titles fluent and others babbling? We also look at other comic books like ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM and X-MEN OF APOCALYPSE. Plus, we catch up with PLURIBUS and check in with Evil Jeff's MY HERO ACADEMIA journey!
What is Apple TV+'s PLURIBUS (PLUR1BUS)? The new sci-fi ... thriller(?) comedy(?) from Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad) has our attention. Plus, we review last week's X-MEN AGE OF REVELATION comic book titles from Marvel. Then we go through the crossover event titles and give each one a TOOT or a BOOT!
Brett and EvilJeff (two gays) have their SCREAM 7 trailer reaction! Sidney Prescott is back! Plus, we talk IKWYDLS (I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER) (2025) and IT: WELCOME TO DERRY. We rave about Netflix's BOOTS. X-MEN's AGE OF REVELATION continues. And, Jonathan Hickman's IMPERIAL shakes up Marvel Cosmic!
Book of Revelation reveals the right protagonist for the former Doug Ramsey. Brett and EvilJeff review the X-MEN: AGE OF REVELATION titles that launched in weeks 3 and 4. There are solid issues like IRON & FROST and X-MEN BOOK OF REVELATION. And there there are others. Plus, GEN V has wrapped and we have a reaction to the S2 finale.
Marvel Comics made X-MEN title announcements at NYCC. What is SHADOWS OF TOMORROW? We have theories! DC Studios' PEACEMAKER S2 finale did some DCU worldbuilding. How is the DCU shaping up so far? We have thoughts. X-MEN also dropped a wave of AGE OF REVELATION titles. We review them.
X-MEN AGE OF REVELATION: OVERTURE kicks off the crossover event. Forge and Magneto have brought Cyclops and Beast back to the future! Plus, PEACEMAKER ep7 delivered one of the best comic book TV show episodes of all time. Chris Smith and Emilia Harcourt send our hearts aflutter while Judomaster COMES OUT! Plus! We got some Dean Cipher GEN V theories for you.
GEN V S2 is here! What is the truth behind its new villain — Mr. Sinister?! Sorry. Cipher! PEACEMAKER reveals the truth behind its alt dimension! We are very scared for Leota Adebayo! Plus, we take a look at some X-Men comics as they wind down their current arcs and wind up to the AGE OF REVELATION! In the past, EMMA FROST and MYSTIQUE play Thelma and Louise.
Kitty Pryde went back in time and the EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN kids dove head first into danger! We also review ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM 7, X-MEN OF APOCALYPSE 1, and speculate more about the AGE OF REVELATION. Plus we review PEACEMAKER S2E4 where we learned more about Chris Smith and DCU interdimensional travel!
PEACEMAKER loves the Best Dimension Ever but is it the worst? It's our Peacemaker S2 E3 reaction and we are shocked at what we think we see (or don't see). Will Chris Smith figure out that his alt friends and family are really...? Plus there is a new BATMAN comic by Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez. And we got some UNCANNY X-MEN, IMPERIAL WAR: EXILES and other Marvel Comics reviews too!
PEACEMAKER S2 has dropped its first two episodes. We try to review them but wind up mostly talking about that Freddie Stroma (Vigilante) dancing scene and spitting out some Peacemaker S2 theories. And we review a ton of Marvel comics from the past two weeks, including IMPERIAL 3, EMMA FROST: WHITE QUEEN 3 and X-MEN 21!
Finally! EvilJeff came to NYC to join Brett at Flamecon! Throughout our podcast's history, Brett has begged (or forgotten to ask) EvilJeff to come to the best queer comic-con in the world! We talk about what we saw, what we bought, and the friends we made along the way. Plus last week's X-Men comics: GIANT SIZE X-MEN 2, X-MEN 20, and the much-improved MAGIK 8!
